From Eutin in the north to Munich in the south, from Duisburg in the west to Dresden in the east – more than 30 branches and trade partners of Daimler AG are now operating as sales and service outlets for the Mercedes-Benz Vito E-CELL. This ensures virtually blanket availability throughout Germany for the first van to be supplied with a standard-fit electric drive ex-factory.
The innovative Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) mobility concept is being used in big cities such as Bogota to channel modern buses along separate lanes for faster, safer, and cleaner transportation. For instance, Mercedes-Benz buses equipped with environmentally friendly BlueTec diesel technology and the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) are operating in Colombia’s capital.
The stage is set for the new Mercedes-Benz SL 63 AMG. The new version of the high-performance Roadster impresses on several counts: systematic lightweight construction, a boost in output and driving dynamics, and 30 percent lower fuel consumption and emissions. Thanks to an all-aluminium bodyshell, similar to that of the SLS AMG super sports car, the vehicle weight has been reduced by 125 kilograms. With a kerb weight of 1845 kilograms and an output of 395 kW (537 hp) or 415 kW (564 hp), the new model has the perfect recipe for unparalleled dynamism and a superior driving experience.
